Well, I'm shame to admit that this is the first Fantastic Four comic I've ever read. Dwayne Mcduffie has a great ear for character dialogue. My favorite moment is Ben Grimm asking about Storm's so-called weave. I thought that was amusing. Anyway I digress, the story is about T'challa and Storm joining the Fantastic Four as Sue Storm and Reed Richard have a vacation on the Jupiter moon Titan. I won't divulge any more than that. The character interactions are fun and the comic book action is flashy. My only quibble is I find a lot of the science jargon incomprehensible. Thankfully Black Panther and Mr. Fantastic are there to translate things in layman's terms. Outside of that, I thought it was a fun read. Nuff said.
